Madam Matilda recognizes Mabel’s exceptional academic potential and dreams of providing her with the best education possible.

However, due to financial constraints, Madam Matilda sought assistance from the Stand Together Educational Foundation and Scholarships when she learned about their program. She registered Mabel under the Foundation’s umbrella, hoping for a scholarship opportunity.

everyone who knows him. He consistently secures the top position in his class in every examination.

Martin’s journey has been marked by challenges, starting with the loss of his father when he was just a baby. Madam Patricia Authur, his mother, is the sole breadwinner for their large family.
